No More Lights...

Hey everyone. Sorry it's been a few days since I updated. We have been BUSY packing boxes and moving stuff around getting ready for the movers to come next week. So, in between feedings, we are packing and deciding what to keep and what to sell/not keep.

Madilyn is doing great. She actually got to come off the bili lights Thursday afternoon! She ended up not minding the bed at all and slept really well on it. It had a humming noise to it, so I'm sure that helped too :)

She had lost weight since birth, but is gaining it back now. When we went to the doc on Tuesday she weighed 6lb 2 1/2oz, but she had really just started eating well too. She wasn't eating when she came home from the hospital which was concerning, but she finally picked up on that Saturday night/Sunday. (she weighed 6lb 7oz at birth) So, when the nurse came Friday to check her bili level one last time and pick up the light, she got her weight checked again and she was up to 6lb 6oz! YAY! She had been gaining a couple of ounces back each day since on the bili lights cuz they would check her weight daily when they came out.

So, we are very proud of our sweet little girl! I will post more later.

We are having a yard sale this weekend, so I have to get back out with helping with that. Chris and Mindy that Scott worked with at Children's have graciously volunteered to help run it for this weekend, so we are VERY thankful for their help! Granny (Mel's mom) gets baby duty while the sale is going :) She's enjoying her job :) hee hee.

I'll try and post more pics later today or tomorrow. Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Love to all!!!
